Get orphan policyholders { I used to work at mutual, they have a great list of orphans} if the client has enough life ins, tell them about disability income - and vice versa. Mutual is a good company. If you have a good mgr, let them show you, let them train you, learn from them...

When an agent leaves the company, their clients are without an agent to service their accounts=orphaned.

When you get a sale, have your clients call me for a quote to see if I can save them money. Haha joke. Just work hard man.

Pretty good. Just still trying to learn the ropes and get into a daily routine.

I'm getting ready to start with them also. Do we have to pay back the career financing at some point?

Find a marketing company that offers MoO and get a good contract.

Get out of the mentality to do 1 product with 1 carrier....Concentrate on small business owners with health needs to get in the door. Many times their employees will follow suit. Now u have the opportunity to see more, sell more. Many Indy GA's are willing to give you a higher contract if you are willing to see more and sell more consistently..

Good luck
